Books that Answer Christian Questions

Emphasis on emotionalism, gifts, congregation size, and money all too often leaves churches short in the area of basic teaching. This is happening at a time when Christians must be sufficiently equipped to share and defend the faith in an increasingly secular humanism moral relativism, cultural perversion, and materialistic atheism. These are general observations that might leave some scratching their heads. Perhaps, an illustration clarifies the concern.

CONSEQUENCES AND CALLING

Sadly, it would be safe to assume that in far too many churches, only a small percentage of members can respond to attacks on the Scriptures.

The lack of theological study has serious consequences. Popular culture finds ready consumers in churches where serious study is lacking. In addition, we are hampered in witnessing to a postmodern world where contrasting ideas of God, heresy, agnosticism and atheism, and other influences compete for the minds and hearts of people. And surely God grieves a people that places diminishing emphasis on His Word to tackle engaging theological questions.

We can all be Christian theologians in our own right. We must not be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, but rather excited about learning, applying The Word, and winning the harvest of an increasingly complex world.
